The Big Big Thread of Religious Discussion

I just wanted to restate:

"And while we're discussing some of the twisted stuff out there -- Hell. How insane is that? Eternal torture? Fucking eternal!? What could possibly warrant that? That's incredibly twisted and sadistic. Punishment is only useful to teach people something -- otherwise it's just sadism, power-lust, revenge, and general insanity. Hell and a loving God are 100% incompatible. If you can rationalize Hell's existence, then you have less humanity and conscience than me, the resident Forum Sociopath. Nice going."

No one thus far has addressed the complete insanity of the idea of hell. Utterly sadistic and without love or compassion, eternal torture is beyond all excuse. I don't think anyone can rationally argue otherwise. But, try if you can, I guess.
